Abstract

The Selfish Biocosm hypothesis asserts that the anthropic qualities which our universe exhibits can be explained as incidental consequences of a cosmological replication cycle in which a cosmologically extended biosphere supplies two of the essential elements of self-replication identified by von Neumann. Further, the hypothesis asserts that the emergence of life and intelligence are key epigenetic thresholds in the cosmological replication cycle, strongly favored by the physical laws and constants of inanimate nature. A falsifiable implication of the hypothesis is that the emergence of increasingly intelligent life is a robust phenomenon, stongly favored by the natural processes of biological evolution
